A PDF artwork template for Lumos counter graphic panels.
PDF artwork template
This PDF file provides a graphic template for a Lumos Counter graphic panel (1254mm x 830mm). The blue areas denote the front design area and the back design area, worth considering since although the Lumos can be viewed from all sides, your marketing messages and images are likely to get most exposure in the two large flat areas at front and back of your counter.
Note that the dimensions above are for the final visible graphic area for your artwork, but please also allow for bleed on all four sides so that when the panel is guillotined, there are no issues with ink cracking along the edge or alignment problems. The bleed areas are also indicated on the template.
The PDF is intended for artwork designers using any software other than InDesign. If you are using InDesign, please download the InDesign template files instead. Please also take a moment to download and peruse our large format print guidelines.
Dimensions: the quarter rule
When working with large format graphics, it is possible to download, open, amend, save, output and rip the artwork files at full size, full resolution. However, the huge file size of this artwork would significantly slow down all of these processes. So we have optimised our workflows to use artwork set up at a quarter of its final output size, at a resolution of 300dpi, giving much smaller files without noticeably reducing the output quality.
So for clarity, the artwork you set up should have the following dimensions:
- Lumos Counter graphic panel (1254mm x 830mm):
Artwork size: 313.5mm x 207.5mm
Bleed: 3mm on all sides - Front and back design areas (400mm x 830mm):
Artwork size: 100mm x 207.5mm - Side design areas (227mm x 830mm):
Artwork size: 56.75mm x 207.5mm
